An unexpected and beautiful change of pace. Brilliantly written and acted, and technically superb. I can't believe the perfection of what I just watched. Rather than giving this a miss - as some reviewers have suggested - I would say that this episode stands alone as a great story and work of art - something that could be appreciated by someone who hasn't even seen the rest of the series. This episode particularly brought out the underlying themes of Mr Robot - which can occasionally get lost in all the action. Some of the scenes were so loaded with amazing images and metaphor... they took my breath away. Yes, I loved the previous episodes too - but we need light and shade! Just wonderful. Don't miss it!

Most beautiful episode even seen .. Rami malek you are amazing

A great episode for me. After seeing Angela breaking down in the last episode, here is the aftermath to Elliot, and a development for his next move. This episode takes completely in a different approach from other Mr. Robot episodes but this is just out of the world.

Everything is slow, deep and touching, with a meaning thoroughly expressed through the episode. It's exactly what the show needs sometimes. I have to say that the acting here is at its best, especially for Rami Malek and Portia Doubleday.

I can not believe what I've just seen. It didn't feel like a TV series at all. I can not understand how someone would rate this episode below 10. I don't consider myself a fanboy of this show, but I simply can not give this episode an 8, or a 9. This is 10 right here. This is possibly the most beautiful episode I've ever seen. Ever. But don't worry, it's not a case of style over substance. Not at all. The beautiful cinematography comes paired with a fantastic episode of self discovery. Mr.Robot has surpassed every expectation I ever even dreamed of. Sam Esmail did it again, this episode was beautiful, sad, happy, and everything more. I have seen people angry, complaining that this episode was filter. That simply doesn't click in my mind. This episode was absolutely necessary. Another masterpiece by Sam Esmail and another 10 from me.

I honestly never thought something like this would be possible out of Mr Robot, a show where you never really understood how people are feeling. It's not like any other Mr Robot episode because here, the viewers get to experience exactly that, and what an experience it is. Catharsis can be a wonderful thing.

I don't usually (possibly ever) do reviews but I had to for this. This episode was one of, if not, the greatest piece in television history. Do yourself a favor and don't listen to the only person on here that gave this episode less than an 8. Sit down, watch and enjoy every second.

Every now and again, not often but at times you experience something quite unique. A soundtrack to your life, memories and the universe around you. A feeling that you've been here before in your dreams and your childhood. Thank you Mr Robot

I watched this entire series a few months ago. I love it. But this episode spoke such high volumes while being so simple and slow. Of the entire show thus far, this is the episode I think about frequently. To the point that I thought today, "I want to rewatch that episode where Elliot goes to the movies." It's so moving and Rami Malek proves again that he was meant for this character and this show was meant for him.

This episode alone is plenty reason to say Mr. Robot is one of the best and most original television shows to exist today.

Mr. robot is an underrated gem of a show. Sam Esmail is a master at creating great cinema like moments which are better than most movies that come out today, we witnessed some really great and ultra-intense scenes in the last three episodes and this was a much needed break. This was different than the other episodes which are so out of the box and unique than anything we have seen elsewhere, but episodes like this show that Elliot is a human like all of us and when he goes through tough times, he copes with it similarly like we all do, by talking to his family and friends (making some new ones in this case!). Lastly, everyone is talking about stranger things while I am sitting here trying to contemplate how awesome this season has been for Mr. robot. Seriously this season has been totally legendary. Definitely one of the best TV-series I have ever watched!!!

Little bit of back story which wasn't really relevant in my opinion. My hope is this doesn't become a common occurrence. You could easily skip this episode and not lose any story. In this day and age where one TV show isn't your weekly quota of watching they really need to step up the relevant content. This weeks episode didn't deliver that. Granted, it's still Mr Robot and it was still reasonably entertaining but not much happens. You start to wonder why you are watching certain scenes, why they were not only specifically put into the episode but why they even bothered shooting it. All in all, you can get a more compelling and emotional experience from a random feel good video online.

This episode is all about grief. People process their grief in different ways, and we get to see a handful of people do that here. It was a truly memorable episode for me. It made me think of a time in my life when I was in grief...

Attention to detail of this series is so great that it really impressed me.

An emotional episode with lots of beautiful and heartbreaking moments, like the one when Elliot cried and the one between Elliot and Angela.

Rami Malek's performance is awesome and this episode is a work of art.

The last three episodes of Mr. Robot were so damn intense that I'm not surprised or disappointed that this episode slowed things down to a crawl. Frankly, it was needed after the traumatic event that was last episode. There were a couple of moments that felt somewhat melodramatic to me, but I think they were earned by the last three. And while the episode hardly advanced the plot at all, it did provide plenty of surreal imagery to chew on.

To me, the most interesting scene in the episode was the opening flashback, which showed a truly heartbreaking interaction between young Elliot and his father. For me, the emotion was slightly undercut by the recasting of young Elliot (I really liked the first one), but the scene still worked because of Christian Slater's fantastic performance. The scene also reveals that Elliot's alternate personalities date back further than we thought. My personal theory is that he created Mr. Robot either right before or right after falling out the window, in order to cope.

Most of the episode focuses on Elliot bonding with Trenton's little brother, who tags along unwanted with him. It's a rocky relationship, which forces Elliot to confront his own issues until he can learn to forgive himself and Angela. Some aspects struck me as a little cliché (especially given the show's outside the box nature), but they worked fine in context and were elevated by the excellent actors and direction.

In short, the episode provides an interesting emotional journey for Elliot with negligible plot advancement but some neat surreal imagery and a much-needed break from the intensity of the last three.

I started to watch mr robot again since I abandoned it after the second series. Gosh it was a bad decision. This whole season is just superb and this episode... This is one of those which will stick with me until I die. There was so much emotion packed into this that it is hard to tell. Rami Malek really kicked the door in with this character. And the last piece of music in the episode while Elliot speaks was just another wonderful moment of cinema. Very well done!

Emotional episode for Elliot. Giving him one more push, to be able to continue. Without a doubt, one of the best episodes of the series.

If you missed this episode you missed the best episode of the series so far. After everything that has happened so far this episode takes you to another level. Some of the best acting I have ever seen. The writers of created a masterpiece worthy of numerous awards. Character depth goes to another level and reveals more than we previously knew.

Spoiler alert, you will fall in sleep during this epsode. The worst of the season so far. The situation with the boy is ureal...

Something struck me deeply during this episode. The commentary behind a depressive mind and the detail behind ones thought process throughout this episode is poetic and undoubtedly accurate. Some will claim this episode as nothing more than a filler but I disagree. I mean, the series display of mental health throughout the seasons has beautifully captured just how, for lack of a better word: hellish it is to operate through daily functions. This episode was a tipping point for Elliot and all that has happened so far. The episode plays like talking someone down off the ledge and moved me to tears by the end of it. I just finished the episode and felt compelled to write this down for people to see. Just beautiful television. This show surpasses what story telling can accomplish. The amount of passion and effort behind this entire production is something that will go down in television history as one of the greats. Can not wait to keep watching.

A beautiful chapter, with a great direction. This is MR. Robot.
